Also avoid locals evicting locals just because they want a cheaper register.
Problem: MI Sched knows exactly how many registers we have and assumes
they can be colored. In cases where we have large blocks, usually from
unrolled loops, greedy coloring fails. This is a source of
"regressions" from the MI Scheduler on x86. I noticed this issue on
x86 where we have long chains of two-address defs in the same live
range. It's easy to see this in matrix multiplication benchmarks like
IRSmk and even the unit test misched-matmul.ll.
A fundamental difference between the LLVM register allocator and
conventional graph coloring is that in our model a live range can't
discover its neighbors, it can only verify its neighbors. That's why
we initially went for greedy coloring and added eviction to deal with
the hard cases. However, for singly defined and two-address live
ranges, we can optimally color without visiting neighbors simply by
processing the live ranges in instruction order.
Other beneficial side effects:
It is much easier to understand and debug regalloc for large blocks
when the live ranges are allocated in order. Yes, global allocation is
still very confusing, but it's nice to be able to comprehend what
happened locally.
Heuristics could be added to bias register assignment based on
instruction locality (think late register pairing, banks...).
Intuituvely this will make some test cases that are on the threshold
of register pressure more stable.

This fixes the few regressions introduced when the two-address hack was
disabled (without regressing the improvements).

instruction lower optimization" in the pre-RA scheduler.
The optimization, rather the hack, was done before MI use-list was available.
Now we should be able to implement it in a better way, perhaps in the
two-address pass until a MI scheduler is available.
Now that the scheduler has to backtrack to handle call sequences. Adding
artificial scheduling constraints is just not safe. Furthermore, the hack
is not taking all the other scheduling decisions into consideration so it's just
as likely to pessimize code. So I view disabling this optimization goodness
regardless of PR11314.

calling-convention resource, to avoid spurious conflicts with
actual uses of SP. Also, fix unscheduling of calling sequences,
which can be triggered by pseudo-two-address dependencies.

Original commit messages:
Eliminate LegalizeOps' LegalizedNodes map and have it just call RAUW
on every node as it legalizes them. This makes it easier to use
hasOneUse() heuristics, since unneeded nodes can be removed from the
DAG earlier.
Make LegalizeOps visit the DAG in an operands-last order. It previously
used operands-first, because LegalizeTypes has to go operands-first, and
LegalizeTypes used to be part of LegalizeOps, but they're now split.
The operands-last order is more natural for several legalization tasks.
For example, it allows lowering code for nodes with floating-point or
vector constants to see those constants directly instead of seeing the
lowered form (often constant-pool loads). This makes some things
somewhat more complicated today, though it ought to allow things to be
simpler in the future. It also fixes some bugs exposed by Legalizing
using RAUW aggressively.
Remove the part of LegalizeOps that attempted to patch up invalid chain
operands on libcalls generated by LegalizeTypes, since it doesn't work
with the new LegalizeOps traversal order. Instead, define what
LegalizeTypes is doing to be correct, and transfer the responsibility
of keeping calls from having overlapping calling sequences into the
scheduler.
Teach the scheduler to model callseq_begin/end pairs as having a
physical register definition/use to prevent calls from having
overlapping calling sequences. This is also somewhat complicated, though
there are ways it might be simplified in the future.

RAGreedy::tryAssign will now evict interference from the preferred
register even when another register is free.
To support this, add the EvictionCost struct that counts how many hints
are broken by an eviction. We don't want to break one hint just to
satisfy another.
Rename canEvict to shouldEvict, and add the first bit of eviction policy
that doesn't depend on spill weights: Always make room in the preferred
register as long as the evictees can be split and aren't already
assigned to their preferred register.
Also make the CSR avoidance more accurate. When looking for a cheaper
register it is OK to use a new volatile register. Only CSR aliases that
have never been used before should be avoided.

Most of these tests require a single mov instruction that can come either before
or after a 2-addr instruction. -join-physregs changes the behavior, but the
results are equivalent.

CopyToReg/CopyFromReg/INLINEASM. These are annoying because
they have the same opcode before an after isel. Fix this by
setting their NodeID to -1 to indicate that they are selected,
just like what automatically happens when selecting things that
end up being machine nodes.
With that done, give IsLegalToFold a new flag that causes it to
ignore chains. This lets the HandleMergeInputChains routine be
the one place that validates chains after a match is successful,
enabling the new hotness in chain processing. This smarter
chain processing eliminates the need for "PreprocessRMW" in the
X86 and MSP430 backends and enables MSP to start matching it's
multiple mem operand instructions more aggressively.
I currently #if out the dead code in the X86 backend and MSP
backend, I'll remove it for real in a follow-on patch.
The testcase changes are:
test/CodeGen/X86/sse3.ll: we generate better code
test/CodeGen/X86/store_op_load_fold2.ll: PreprocessRMW was
miscompiling this before, we now generate correct code
Convert it to filecheck while I'm at it.
test/CodeGen/MSP430/Inst16mm.ll: Add a testcase for mem/mem
folding to make anton happy. :)

only run for x86 with fastisel. I've found it being very effective in
eliminating some obvious dead code as result of formal parameter lowering
especially when tail call optimization eliminated the need for some of the loads
from fixed frame objects. It also shrinks a number of the tests. A couple of
tests no longer make sense and are now eliminated.

print signed values more consistently. This apparently only really affects
the X86 backend.
